ESPN: Sparano knew how to keep Romo grounded

[Apollo Creed]

To be fair, skip peete, who seems to be a very good coach and ray sherman are pretty animated guys from what I can see on sundays.

Exactly. Our RB coach and WR coach are the most animated ones.

RJ or Wade aren't those types of guys, but I wouldn't mind seeing them without that look of bewilderment on their faces every time they pan to them on the sideline.

 

[Doomsday101]

Sparano's biggest influence was on our offensive line, he kept them motivated. Our sideline is lifeless from a coaching standpoint.

That is BS you people were hollering that same crud then as well

Or...

Picking selected photos to prove a point? Wow!!!!! Bottom line when Dallas lost when BP and Sparano was here the peanut gallery moaned and groaned about them as well. When you don't win the peanut gallery has all the solutions and a short memory evidently.

He also had his worst season to date..."with TO".

Wrap your head around that one for a minute.

Lolz....

Guess we will have to see what he puts up this year with only 2 Pro-Bowlers to throw too instead of 3.

Who is to say he will not help another become a pro bowl player? However Dallas spreading the ball around is a lot more important than individual honors which is the Pro Bowl. Instead of having one crying for the ball and claiming that Romo and Witten are drawing up plays and not letting him in on it.

Are you serious?

Yes.

HAHAHAHA

What a dumb post.

Thanks for raising the bar.

No, Sparano was here for perhaps our best offensive season in franchise history. He also was a well-respected guy, and our offensive line hasn't performed the same since he left.

I felt he was a key component to our success - everyone we have on our staff right now, I don't have that level of faith in them.

The pictures do prove a point, if you're a multi-million dollar egotistical football player, who are you going to respect and listen to more?

Like when we faced a depleted Seahawks secondary and ran the ball instead? As for your picture they prove nothing you are selecting the picture to fit your own agenda that picture means absolutely nothing. Sparano and company where not looking that damn good as they laid a fricken egg with turnover after turnover vs the Ravens in the playoffs but I see you are not selecting a sideline shot from that game no you select one that freeze frames one moment in 1 game out of many. Had that been Dallas turning the ball over like that you guys would be hollering what a crappy coach Sparnao was.

He turned guys like Chad Pennington, Anthony Fasano, Rickey Williams, and the winless Dolphins into a playoff team.

You're right, he sucks.

I did not say he sucks but when Dallas come up short in the playoffs the fans around here whined about how the Seahawks defense was so beat up and we could not take advantage of it I guess he was not so damn bright that day right? I think he is a good coach and I'm sure he is one of many people who have had an influence in Romo career. I also think many short change Garrett and his ability he is a young OC who has had some success and some failure just as Sparano has had in this career but you are willing to slam Garrett and want him gone? Please our fickle fans are pathetic.

I'm fickle, and pathetic b/c I think Tony Sparano was the best man for the job on this team, got it.

That was very difficult to read btw.

No because people criticized him when he was here for failures by the offense this 2 faced attitude that is pathetic. As soon as someone has a bad season you holler you want him out be it a player or coach that is what is fricken Pathetic. Garrett is a damn good coach people need to give him the opportunity to prove it instead of acting like they know how to run an NFL offense or any offense as far as that goes. Sparano has said as much about Garrett ability as an OC

Recipe for an ESPN article;

Step 1; Collect quotes from a former coach that are ALL positive about Tony Romo. Really anyone should look at those and think "Man, it's good that we have a guy like that at QB."

Step 2; Relate an anecdote that "somebody" told the reporter about the previous coach's interaction with Tony Romo. Sparano ribbed him about his girlfriend. This is typical joking in the close setting of a football team.

Step 3; Conclude that this was how the previous coaching staff kept Tony "grounded", as well as concluding that there is noone on the current coaching staff who is capable of keeping Tony "grounded", otherwise known as ribbing him about his girlfriend.

If you are wondering where the logical connection between the three steps is, you're not alone.

Punk, you are one of my favorite posters on here. This is gold.

Sparano didn't say one bad word about Romo, unless being a hardworking competitor is a bad thing.

You are right, the pictures DO prove a point. They prove that you do have an agenda.

Are you tring to tell me that never during the NFL season was Sprano left scratching his heard wondering what was going on? Are you saying that no where during the season did either Garrett or Wade Phillips hollar and screem?

 

[Rampage]

And with TO.

you got some nerve bashing your own qb all the time and supporting Brady Quinn.

I like Romo... he is better than anything we have had around here in awhile. I hope he gets his turnover proness under control so we all can rejoice in February.

But I do think that Brady has more potential than Romo. You put Brady with 3 years of experience with our team last year and we make the playoffs. Fact.
